About the Presentation

COVID-19, unprofitable oil prices, extreme government responses, horrific economic data, and unintended consequences make seeing into the future more precarious than ever at a time when a measure of clarity is imperative. We will look at the most up-to-date, forward-looking data to discern where we are going and what the near-term indications are for the economy.

What will attendees receive?

Attendees will leave the presentation with a clearer understanding of what the numbers are telling us regarding the economy’s outlook through 2021-2022 and what our analysis is telling us about the rest of this decade and the 2030s.

Questions to be answered

How would the occurrence of a second wave of COVID-19 impact ITR’s forecasts?

How likely is recovery leading to growth versus a more “the depression is upon us” view?

What unintended consequences might we see from the government’s handling of the pandemic, and how will that influence the economic forces of this decade?

Why does ITR Economics think the Great Depression is still a phenomenon of the 2030s?
